Carlos Delgado
I have always loved to paint. But already from the beginning, when I was a small child playing around with pens and markers, I challenged myself and went beyond the obvious.

Carlos Delgado
Carlos Delgado paints abstract portraits. They are abstract in the sense that they don’t represent the image of someone specific, instead they are the creation of the artists experience and memories. These abstract portraits have gained huge appreciation from galleries, collectors and other artists all over the world.
"My works explore a multitude of expressions and ranges of human self-expression. Focusing on capturing the subtleties of emotions and experiences as expressed through the face and the body, it becomes a reflection of each individual being and humans as a whole. The environment that I am, including all of the cultural and social aspects, are the influences and the subjects of my work."
